Nurses on what lasts a 12-hour shift.

Nurses are on their feet, bending, lifting and reaching for 12 hours at a stretch. If a bra rides up or digs in, they notice in the first hour.

We pulled every review from nurses and others who work long shifts on their feet. Every single one recommends HUUG.

1. No pulling, bunching or shifting

When you're with patients, you can't stop to fix your bra. Reviewers say this one stays exactly where you put it.

“I am a nurse and I am too busy and active to deal with anything less than comfy. No pulling. No bunching. No shifting. Wanna see a cranky nurse? Find one whose underthings are constantly shifting and slipping.”

Kathleen R., verified buyer

2. Still comfortable at hour twelve

Nurses kept writing that they still didn't notice it at the end of a night shift.

“This is a really comfortable bra! I work long 12 hour night shifts, and I still don’t notice it at the end of my shift.”

Katie S., verified buyer

3. It stays put while you move

Bending over a bed, lifting, reaching overhead. The snug band and bonded pads move with you rather than riding up.

“Love this bra. Comfortable, flattering, stays put through a 12 hour shift. And machine washable to make it even better. Really happy with this purchase.”

Lynnette L., verified buyer

4. The pads are bonded in, so they never shift

EnMeshed Tech™ mesh pads are bonded into the bra itself. Nothing to fish out of the wash, unfold or push back into place. Of all our reviews, 344 bring the pads up by name.

“This bra ticked all the boxes. Well made, sewn in pads, no clasp, super comfortable.”

Tammi S., verified buyer

5. Wash it after every shift

Machine wash, tumble dry, wear it again tomorrow. No delicates cycle after a long shift.

“Love the fit snd style and wearability of this bra. I washed and dried it in the dryer and it is perfect!! Amazingly durable. I will be referring my nurse and teacher friends!”

Maribeth K., verified buyer

6. No wires, no foam, no hardware

The Daily Embrace pulls on over your head. There are no hooks digging into your back and no wire pressing into your ribs, just a snug, smooth band that holds you in place.

“I wanted a bra that has no clasps, does not have removable pads and provides support. This bra does all of those and I reach for it every day to wear under my shirts. Thank you, Huug, for designing a truly great bra!”

Casey H., verified buyer

7. It works under scrubs

A smooth, seamless finish means no lines or bumps under fitted scrubs.

“I have been wearing this to my 12 hour shifts as a nurse, and it has been great! Awesome support and comfort!”

Super

I am a nurse and I am too busy and active to deal with anything less than comfy. No pulling. No bunching. No shifting. Wanna see a cranky nurse? Find one whose underthings are constantly shifting and slipping. This style hits the mark.
